Win Forever by Pete Carroll

What is better: competing or winning?

This question was asked to Pete Carroll on his first day as head coach of the Seattle Seahawks. His answer was easy

Competing. Why? Because it lasts longer. 

 

Pete Caroll is a super bowl winning head coach of the Seattle Seahawks and legendary college football coach of the USC Trojans.  Ever since he was a little kid he always competed hard for everything he wanted. Early on in his coaching career, he used this attitude to help him rise in the coaching ranks, and he started to realize that if he was truly going to reach his potential as a coach he needed to stop worrying about winning or losing, and focus on just competing every day. He first implemented his newly found philosophy at USC and went on to win multiple championships, and later went on to the NFL where he led the Seattle Seahawks to a super bowl victory. All these experiences led him to create his own leadership philosophy.
